The Basic Idea

(The Mission !)

The Coalition of New Canadians for Arts and Culture developed employment and business opportunities for
arts and culture professionals, increased opportunities for community
activities that concerned themselves with youth and the diversification of
cultural activities, and developed partnerships that supported its mission.

Background

Somewhere around the later days of 2004, a small group of world travelers and keen professional arts immigrants to Canada, drawn to an atomic core, imagined a world of opportunity for new immigrant arts and culture professionals. These persons, their families, and their communities, hand in hand with the open hearts of arts communities, settled communities, and indigenous peoples across Canada, contributed to the heart and soul of their adopted country. more
